Update: Watch fixed...$20.

Best news I've heard today lol   Very happy for you[/QUOTE]

Thank you. I've worn the watch a lot and was struggling to find a sharp-looking replacement. For $20, it seemed like a no-brainer. I hope to be less of a klutz next time though!

Great trip report Vman. Like others have said, makes you feel like you were there. The wife and I have yet to get out to Vegas. Family commitments have been keeping us close to home. When and if you make it to Ct and Mohegan Sun, I'll have a watch for you. Have several I have won or bought over the years and never wore them. May not be your style though. I think I may even have a Rolex knock off. Anyway its free when you get here. I wasn't thirsty until I saw the pics. I must have read the report too quickly though. What do comments like 3.5 sips mean? Does it mean that is how much of the glass you drank? Super job as usual. Especially like the comments about idiot things that don't work right or idiot people. Really cracks you up and I'm sure we all can identify with those things too. I know I can. Sorry I didn't get to read sooner. Things still hectic with the folks at home.

Understand if you were busy. You have to set aside awhile to read this anyway...

And thanks for the offer, but I actually got my watch fixed for $20, works fine now. :)

The "sip" idea was a rating of the beer's quality out of 5. The untappd app asks for an overall rating when you add the beer to your list, so I filled them in. My average rating is about 3.5 or so.

Ah ha.....Now I know. Since I don't have a smart phone and know nothing about apps etc., that is why I was confused. Funny, because some of the glasses in your pics looked like thay had 3.5 or so sips missing. I knew however, that would not be like you or me to leave a 2/3 full glass of nice cold brew for the cleanup people. And if were a tasting tour, there is no way, they would have given you the bottles or nice full glasses. I have a neat glass from the Willimantic Brewing Company. Someone left it last year in the Mohegan Sun parking garage and of course I couldn't leave it for the trash people. Check out their interesting web site. Of course I had to go and check this place out once I had the glass. Neat historic place and the food and brew was really good. The Mrs liked it too.
